Chapter 151: I Received Hair

Deus Lich, Drek Karaks, selectively sought out only the Monster-infested Areas around Moscow.

When forming the initial Undead legion, nuclear bombs were necessary.

To quickly secure troops.

But now there was no need for that.

He had gathered sufficient forces to roll the snowball.

Northeast of Moscow, there weren’t many cities.

Even if there were, they were already ruined and turned to ruins.

Areas almost entirely dominated by monsters.

Drek Karaks pushed his legion into the Monster-infested Areas.

Regular monsters were no match for undead monsters.

Elite monsters were the same.

Kill the monsters, turn the dead ones into Undead, attack even larger Monster-infested Areas.

The numbers kept growing.

They had already exceeded one million.

Thus, finally, the million-strong undead monster legion led by Drek Karaks returned to Downtown Moscow.

The first place he went was the War Memorial Museum where the first nuclear explosion had occurred.

Why had this place been bombed?

This place that had been the hideout of his faithful servants, the Black Mafia Elders, and the organization’s lower-level dark mages.

He could have used them without killing them.

However, this too was part of the plan.

“Rise!”

Crack, crackle!

Corpses rising in the War Memorial Museum that had collapsed into ruins from the nuclear explosion—all had been his servants in life.

Those with remaining corpses became ghouls or durahans, or skeletons, those whose forms had completely disappeared became ghostly Undead specters, and the elders became…

– Master.

– We are honored that you have called us.

– We pledge our loyalty.

Matsumoto, Yonson, and Abraham, who had been 8th Class dark mages, were reborn as undead necromancers.

Their souls had been owned by him anyway.

They couldn’t escape even in death.

And finally, going to the Moscow Defense Command Headquarters.

“Carmen!”

Carmen, whose body had burst from the prohibition.

The flesh and bones scattered here and there gathered together again.

Also becoming an undead necromancer.

– Master, I have been waiting.

“Yes, you’ve worked hard.”

A million-scale Undead legion.

It was too much to command alone.

In the future, the number would keep growing to two million, three million.

These would serve as intermediate commanders.

Drek Karaks gave his orders.

“Secure human guns and cannons from the armory, along with sufficient ammunition.”

– We shall obey your command.

The legion didn’t consist only of monsters.

There were also countless human Undead raised from cemeteries.

He planned to arm them all with modern scientific weapons.

There were still many such Military Bases in Moscow.

While the humanoid Undead were arming themselves.

Deus Lich, Drek Karaks, fell into thought.

What was the reason he had started this war?

To conquer Europe?

To cover Earth with Undead armies?

No.

To survive.

From that bastard Kim Tae-ju.

He wasn’t afraid of the European Imperial Army at all.

For Drek Karaks, the greatest enemy was Kim Tae-ju.

So knowing exactly where that bastard was located was most important.

The place where he now stood was where Carmen and Kim Tae-ju had their confrontation.

Though she was an 8th Circle dark mage, she had been ridiculously defeated without even properly using her power.

The traces Kim Tae-ju had left behind.

Destroyed magic circles, his footprints.

Drek Karaks drew up a great deal of dark magic.

Whooooom.

And he chanted quietly.

“Dark Trace.”

A type of tracking magic.

Dark magic that tells you roughly where the target you want to find is located.

But!

‘…Huh?’

What’s this?

Was the dark magic wrong?

The magic didn’t work.

Clearly the dark magic should have moved in the direction where that bastard was.

“Dark Trace. Dark Trace. Dark Tra…”

No matter how many times he cast it, it was the same.

‘…Why on earth?’

He couldn’t understand it at all.

Was the magic not working?

That couldn’t be.

Or maybe…

‘He might be dead.’

There was nothing else he could think of besides that.

Though there was one more thing.

Not existing on Earth.

‘Did he do dimensional travel or something?’

It was an absurd speculation, but.

That’s when it happened.

Whoooosh!

Boom! Boom boom boom boom boom!

With a tremendous roar, the entire Building shook as if it would collapse.

Swoosh!

Drek Karaks floated in the air and moved as if gliding, coming outside.

At the same time, looking up at the sky.

‘Imperial Forces.’

Screech! Screech!

State-of-the-art fighter-bombers were pouring bombs and missiles onto the undead monster legion.

“How laughable.”

Drek Karaks raised his staff and aimed it at the air.

Then the elite undead flying beasts that received his command flapped their wings and flew toward the fighter jets like streaks of light.

These weren’t simple undead flying beasts.

Drek Karaks also knew the importance of modern aerial warfare.

Using the power of a Deus Lich, he had specially crafted these beasts with self-destruct capabilities that could adequately face fighter jets.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwang!

Flames and explosions erupted in the air.

Shuuuuuung!

A fighter-bomber came crashing down.

Kwa-aang!

Now he wasn’t even afraid of Kim Tae-ju.

Look at this massive undead army.

On the ground and in the air.

No one could stop his legion.

European Empire Emperor Alex Caesar?

Nothing but worthless trash.

“Advance!”

The legion passed through downtown Moscow and headed west.

The snowball had started rolling.

The more it rolled, the bigger it would become.

All of Europe would become a world of the undead.

Immortal Realm.

He realized that ascending to immortality was a temporary phenomenon.

Then the remaining task was how meaningfully to spend the remaining time.

Tae-ju wanted to spend more time with Danggumak, but…

“Uhahahaha, Kim Tae-ju, I am Hwaseon. I painted your portrait. That’s how I could recognize you immediately.”

“Oh my, just from a painting. Are you using the Divine Spirit Compass I made well?”

“Tsk tsk, what Kim Tae-ju uses most are my talismans.”

“How did the immortal wine taste? Let’s have a drink later.”

The immortals absolutely refused to let him go.

Immortals in various attire.

Training suits, jeans and shirts, stylish suits, hiking clothes…

Well, since Earth’s fashion had entered the Immortal Realm, he understood, but there was even an immortal in quite radical attire even by Earth’s standards… was this person really an immortal?

“Hello? Tae-ju, nice to meet you. I’m Ha Seon-go.”

“…Yes.”

She was indeed an immortal.

She appeared to be a girl on the outside.

Wearing a baseball cap, hair braided in pigtails, a crop top and short dolphin pants that exposed her lower buttocks, white socks with three-stripe slippers, and a lollipop in her mouth.

“I played a decisive role in securing the Heavenly Peach. You didn’t know that?”

“…I’m indebted to you.”

“Oh come on, it’s not that big a debt, just keep it in mind.”

Ah, to think this person was an immortal.

But he couldn’t even look at her properly.

“That, that, that’s indecent.”

“She’s showing Kim Tae-ju something unseemly.”

“Put on stockings right now!”

“Scandalous!”

“Fishnet would be good.”

The Swordsman was also very happy about Tae-ju’s temporary ascension and kept bragging.

“See? Wasn’t I right? Where did all those immortals who dismissed it as a pipe dream go? Why are they all silent? Did they all get owned?”

“Tsk, just because he dealt with one demon in a dream… showing off.”

“It’s worth showing off. It’s proof that Kim Tae-ju trusts me that much, isn’t it?”

“Sigh, Dongbin! Let’s keep it moderate.”

Gwi-gok couldn’t back down either.

“Forget all that, who built the crystal power facility that Kim Tae-ju sent? Huh? I also installed all the intranet.”

“Gwi-gok, you just assembled parts made on Earth.”

“Then why didn’t you assemble it?”

“You think I can’t do it…”

“Try it then.”

Suddenly Tae-ju’s ears perked up.

‘Huh?’

The intranet installation was complete?

Then could it be used now?

‘Let me test it.’

He took out two Immortal Realm-exclusive smartphones from Infinite Space and handed one to the Swordsman.

“Could you deliver this to Dok-seon?”

“Of course!”

Spot!

The Swordsman instantly rushed to Danggumak and handed over the smartphone.

Then Tae-ju waved his smartphone and shouted.

“It’s KeTalk. KeTalk! Sign up first!”

Danggumak nodded as if he understood.

They both signed up, created profiles, opened their friend lists, and entered a chat room.

It worked.

The intranet was functioning.

KeTalk!

[Tae-ju]: I missed you.

[Dok-seon]: I feel the same. Anyway, welcome to the Immortal Realm.

[Tae-ju]: Seeing it in person, it’s changed so much.

[Dok-seon]: For the better? For the worse?

KeTalk!

[Tae-ju]: Well. Honestly, I’m worried that this noble and sacred Immortal Realm has been cluttered with vulgar earthly things.

[Dok-seon]: Noble my ass, look at the immortals. You don’t think they’re sacred, do you?

[Tae-ju]: Hey, still.

[Dok-seon]: Just look at Ha Seon-go. Does that woman seem like an immortal?

KeTalk!

[Dok-seon]: Even now. Look at their expressions, desperate to get their hands on this smartphone. I’m an immortal too, but don’t be fooled by immortals.

What about their expressions?

When he turned his head, he saw immortals staring intently at the smartphones.

“Are, are you having a conversation with this right now?”

“Yes.”

“You can also take and send photos? Show off food like on StarGram?”

“I suppose so.”

“Wow, I’ve only seen this in dramas. Then shopping is possible too?”

“Probably.”

He could feel intense longing from the immortals.

The obsession to have these smartphones.

He understood.

Until now, they would have only encountered basic devices for taking photos or storing videos.

You’re seeing this work for the first time, aren’t you.

Especially Ha Seon-go’s eyes sparkled brightly.

“That phone… are there only two?”

“No, I brought plenty.”

“Hmm, couldn’t you give me just one? Tae-ju, oppa! I’ll pay you back later.”

“…”

She even gave subtle eye smiles, while sneakily linking arms with him.

The Immortals were outraged.

“How shameless!”

“Wicked!”

“Get away from him!”

“Don’t be fooled. She’s older than me,”

“Acting like that despite being an old hag.”

The more they protested, the closer Ha Seon-go clung.

Actually, these were smartphones he had planned to distribute through delivery.

So after escaping from Ha Seon-go’s arms.

“I don’t mind giving them out, but you’ll need to sign up for membership. Can you do that?”

“Tae-ju can teach me.”

“…Yes.”

Tae-ju helped Ha Seon-go sign up for the messenger app under her name.

“Invite me to the chat room too.”

KeTalk!

[Ha Seon-go]: Hello!

[Dok-seon]: Hehehe, this is driving me crazy.

Click!

KeTalk!

She even took and uploaded a photo.

She was truly skillful.

[Ha Seon-go]: How’s this! Not bad, right?

Gulp.

The sound of swallowing could be heard.

Every Immortal was looking at him.

There was no choice.

Let’s distribute them here and now.

Taking out smartphones from Infinite Space.

“I’ll give you each one.”

“Ooooh!”

“Truly a great hero.”

“So generous.”

“Even with the same soul, he’s on a different level from that cheapskate Dok-seon.”

“That’s why he kept sending precious items every time.”

“Don’t cut in line!”

“Form a line.”

In the end, he distributed one to each of them.

KeTalk!

[Dok-seon]: Why give those away for free? You could really milk them for money, with 60-month interest installments and forced contracts too.

He was truly a Danggumak who had absorbed a lot of Earth’s ways.

[Tae-ju]: I thought it would be better to distribute the devices for free and monetize the services.

[Dok-seon]: Oh! That would work.

The Immortals who received gifts didn’t stay idle.

“Now, now, we received something precious, so would it be right to just wipe our mouths clean? Everyone bring something.”

“Right! That’s how it should be.”

“Wait a moment. I’ll bring a return gift.”

“I don’t have anything though?”

“Go to the Yoma Realm and extract some poison!”

“Or dig up some medicinal herbs.”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The Immortals quickly scattered.

It was complete chaos.

Is this really what the Immortal Realm is like?

Meanwhile.

There was a being who had been quietly watching this scene from the beginning.

After the Immortals disappeared, it approached Tae-ju who was left alone.

Swoosh.

“Um, excuse me, are you perhaps Lord Tae-ju?”

“That’s correct, but who are… Huh!”

He was startled.

It wasn’t an Immortal.

‘A monkey?’

Why is there a monkey in the Immortal Realm?

That’s when it happened.

Swish swish swish swish! Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!

‘Hm?’

Countless objects floating in the air.

‘…Those are black steel ingots.’

Dok-seon must have launched them.

This was the technique of Manceon Hwau.

Only he and Dok-seon could do this.

‘But why Manceon Hwau all of a sudden?’

It seemed like Danggumak had launched them as soon as the monkey approached.

The targeting was also aimed at this monkey.

The stance suggested he’d drive them straight down if any suspicious moves were made.

If Dok-seon was being this cautious, it seemed like quite a dangerous being.

‘I’m no pushover either.’

Wasn’t he the one who had mastered Toxic Spirit?

Suddenly!

The monkey prostrated itself and bowed its head.

“Please forgive me. The sin of daring to try to steal the Heavenly Peach that should have gone to Lord Tae-ju! Though I deserve punishment, if you give me just one chance, this Mi-hu King will live remembering your grace for life.”

“…Uh.”

Tae-ju was flustered.

It suddenly prostrated and begged.

But it tried to steal the Heavenly Peach?

Did such a thing happen?

Anyway, Mi-hu King.

A familiar name.

Wait!

He remembered.

“…Are you perhaps Sun Wukong, Jecheon Daeseong?”

“That’s a shameful false name. Please just call me Mi-hu Monkey, the leader of demons.”

My goodness!

To meet Jecheon Daeseong in the Immortal Realm.

The real Sun Wukong, not a fictional character.

Truly befitting a multiverse.

“I shall give you this as an apology.”

Sun Wukong suddenly grabbed the fur on his chest with both hands and plucked it out.

Golden fur clutched in both hands.

He carefully blew his breath into that fur.

Whooooooo.

Then he respectfully offered it to Tae-ju.

“It will be useful to you. So please accept it.”

“….”

Fur.

Should I accept this?

What is this thing used for?

It’s definitely extraordinary.

I could feel tremendous power from the fur.

“This fur is a clone body made with my demonic power….”

As Jecheon Daeseong began explaining to Tae-ju.

Swoooosh!

The black iron hidden weapons floating in the sky also disappeared.

Danggumak’s eyes sparkled.

‘That’s pretty good?’

Who would have thought that monkey could be this useful.

That fur is something Tae-ju desperately needs.

I know because I’ve experienced it myself.

How terrifying and persistent those fur clone bodies were.

‘It’s small in size, perfect for shipping too.’

However, to send them continuously, the fur needs to be grown abundantly.

‘Let’s see, is there hair growth medicine?’

Unfortunately, Gangho Murim didn’t deal with things like hair growth medicine.

If it doesn’t exist, just make it.

Or Tae-ju could make it and send it by delivery.

‘Modern medicine would be better for hair growth medicine, right?’

It was the moment when Jecheon Daeseong’s value, who had been nothing but a burden, was greatly elevated.
